Someone asked about the girl/boy thing....Bennie does not have as bright of cheeks as Roger, but he also doesn't have the bars on his tail that are typical of females. It is a tossup and Amber knows that. My vet and I just decided to say "he" because of the bar thing. The other two were much more decidedly girls. If he lays an egg, then you know you don't have a boy! LOL!!!!

Love the pictures. Keep on telling me all about him, please!!!
Yep! He'll nibble at my finger and hold his head down waiting then when I move my finger away he'll nibble again, wanting me to scratch his head again. At first, he REALLY didn't like me touching his head/back. By the second day, he leaned his head down and let me pet him, but he was still pretty insistent with me going any further than his neck. But now, he let's me pet him with no problem. I even managed to kiss his little head today!

And, he LOVES his cage. He was exploring it last night when I put him in it. I also set the toy you gave me, outside of the cage, so it's hanging. When I have him out he'll just climb up his cage and on to his toy.

The only thing im having trouble with is getting him to eat anything other than seeds. I cut up carrots for him today, but he didn't want it. Did he like any specific thing when he was with you?
